Weekend Results

What an amazing weekend it was for the Nike Fleet Feet Racing Team from Huntsville!  The Rocket City Marathon was the premier event not only in town but in the southeast and the team was well represented both in racing and with the Nike/Fleet Feet Pacing Teams.



On the men's side, last year's winner David Riddle ran a stellar 2:28:14 and earned 4th overall.  Personal bests were set by Blake Thompson and Greg Reynolds who both ran under three hours.  Brett Wilks had a great marathon debut by running 3:04.

On the women's side it was a run away win for local Candace Jacobs who ran a personal best 2:54:20.  Heather Day was the only other female team athlete who raced.
